Thomas Eliminated

Level 12 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante

Action folded around to Michael Thomas in the cutoff who shoved all in for his last 11,300. Next to act was Joshua McBroom on the button, and he thought for a minute before shoving all in over the top. The blinds got out of the way and the two players flipped up their cards.

Thomas: {q-Spades}{j-Diamonds}
McBroom: {a-Hearts}{j-Spades}

McBroom was in a dominating position, and the hand was virtually over when the flop came {a-Diamonds}{j-Clubs}{5-Spades}. The turn and river provided no miracles for Thomas, coming {2-Spades} and {10-Diamonds}, and Thomas was eliminated from the tournament.
